-stay where I am and spend my own money in one of the best hockey markets in the world and continue making millions yearly in a city that supports my business and has agreed to subsidize a new building as long as I'm reasonable about how much money I expect the tax payers to burden

The choice doesn't seem very difficult to me.
Good post. I agree completely, the choice seems clear.
